1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Rolapitant (Varubi™) is an orally active neurokinin-1 receptor antagonist developed by TESARO and approved in the USA for use in combination with other antiemetic agents for the prevention of delayed chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) in adults. Unlike other approved agents in this class, rolapitant does not interact with cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzyme CYP3A4. It also has a long elimination half-life which means that a single dose could prevent CINV during the entire at-risk period (0-120 h). An intravenous formulation of rolapitant is under clinical development in the USA. Phase II development of rolapitant in postoperative nausea and vomiting, and cough appears to have been discontinued. This article summarizes the milestones in the development of rolapitant leading to the first approval for the prevention of CINV.
